This is a family recipe from 4 generations, very popular at family gatherings. Ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package philadelphia cream cheese, softened (light works) |
2 pints heavy whipping cream |
4 tablespoons vanilla extract |
1/4 cup powdered sugar |
2 tablespoons ground coriander |
2 cans pineapple tidbits (well drained) |
3 bunches red seedless grapes, halved (you can use the green ones if red are not in season) |
1 (16 ounce) package miniature marshmallows |
4 peeled bananas, quartered and sliced thick |
Directions:
1. Whip heavy cream until stiff and slowly fold in soft cream cheese till blended.
2. Add sugar and vanilla extract and coriander, blending til mixed thoroughly.
3. Begin folding in pineapple and grapes and marshmallows, but wait to add the bananas and only add to the amount you are going to serve.
4. It works well with most any main course and could actually be used for dessert.
5. If it sits for a few hours in the frig, or even overnight, the flavors blend, though you want to stir through it before serving, keeping it covered tight in the frig.
6. This can be spread in shallow pans and frozen and cut in sections and served on lettuce as a frozen addition to dinner but leave the bananas out because they turn dark.
